The Technique Lovers Challenge 306, was to paint with Stickles on our card. Neat challenge!
I stamped my sunflower with Stazon Saddle Brown on GP White. I used Yellow and Orange Stickles on the flower and colored the leaves using a Prismacolor green pencil and Turpenoid.
My card is also for the QFTD41 Challenge honoring Kathy, (Airborne 101). Kathy has a wonderful gallery and here is the card I chose to case:
Instead of an elegant Christmas card I made a general occasion card. I used a sunflower image (new stamp for me) instead of the poinsettia, used bakers twine instead of ribbon and changed colors and papers.
This also qualifies for the Woodware Challenge to use something new on our cards. The Rubber Stampede Sunflower 11 is a new stamp I bought at Michael's last month.
